Today marks 50 years in broadcasting for me.
My first ever paid shift was Christmas Eve, 1961 at CKOV in Kelowna.
I gave a station id and weather forecast between 15 minute recorded Christmas shows between 6pm and 1am.
I also forgot to shut off the transmitter after sign off.
Earlier that year, I'd done a weekly high school news show, acted as go-for and remote set up and operator.
It's been one hell of a ride.
I still tell people I've never worked a day in my life.
That's the way it is when you love what you do.
A very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everyone who contributes and lurks on this board and Happy Holidays to those who celebrate in other ways.
Here's hoping the New Year will be great for all of us.
